First a Special Note<\/strong>

Thank you for all the comments telling me how much you are enjoying the interviews. It means a lot that you have taken time out of your day to contact me. Let me address a few things, so we are all on the same page.


Yes, the articles are free. There is no subscription, and they will run until at least August 2020. Thank you for asking me where my donate button is, but I don\u2019t have one. If you feel compelled to support me in some manner, you can buy one of my books.


If the subject manner of the books isn\u2019t what you are interested in, you can donate a book in the following ways, which would mean a lot to me.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n


1. A friend or neighbor. Who doesn\u2019t love getting a book?
<\/p>\n\n\n\n


2. The pediatric unit of your local hospital or, better yet, a Shriners hospital (Shriners has been an integral part of our families\u2019 lives, and they are fabulous. They take difficult life situations and make them better).
<\/p>\n\n\n\n


3. A woman’s shelter (I spent a good chunk of time there as a kid. I was thankful for the playroom that had books on a shelf.)
<\/p>\n\n\n\n



You can find information about my books here:

Again, thank you for taking time to write me. It\u2019s always encouraging knowing how much people appreciate the work you put into a project.

When I first started learning Corel Painter, I found a class on Lynda.com that John Derry taught. Little did I realize I would be talking to him personally a few years later. It\u2019s always funny when things like that happen to you. Insignificant moments in your day to day turn out to be something a lot deeper later in life. <\/p>\n\n\n\n



John surprised me. I didn\u2019t realize how deep he is cemented in the Corel Painter world, and I didn\u2019t realize how much he played in the inception of this program. On top of that, when he unpacked why he created his artwork, I found I looked at his work differently.



Sometimes it only takes a bit of sharing for one to see things differently.

You can download a PDF of the complete interview below (9 pages). Download it, and then open it up on your desktop. It is set to look like a magazine spread, but it only does this when you reopen it on your desktop AFTER you downloaded it. When you read it in the browser, it comes up as single pages.



If you do not have a PDF viewer, you can download Adobe’s free PDF reader here:
